User Reviews for Bupropion

Zyban (bupropion): I quit smoking the day I started taking zyban and within 2 weeks I had no desire for smoking. I used to smoke 20 cigarettes a day for over 20 years. It has been 3 years that I quit smoking.

Zyban (bupropion): Given Zyban to help me stop smoking and it worked. I quit smoking, drinking tea and sodas too. To this day I do not want to smoke or drink tea or sodas. I didn't know that I would feel so good too. I didn't feel depressed anymore. I felt content with life. The only draw back I experienced was some dizziness.

Zyban (bupropion): I wasn't even thinking of quitting. I began taking Welbutrin/Zyban and within a week I hadn't craved smoking. It has been great and I have been smoke-free for almost 2 months now.

Zyban (bupropion): I find this medication very helpful. My first smoke tasted funny. My second time smoking I could only smoke half...the third time I lit it and threw it away. After that I was at a cookout and people around me were smoking yet I had no desire (craving) to smoke with them. It's been 3 weeks and I'm very pleased. I have not smoked since..started at 14 and ended at 46. What a relief!

Zyban (bupropion): I took the 1st week and then the second week I forgot to take the 3rd morning dose. That evening as I got ready to take the evening dose, I realized I had no desire to smoke so I quit taking it. I've been smoke free for almost 12 years, this after smoking for 44 years at about a pack and a half daily. Best medicine ever.

bupropion: I have attempted to quit several times over the years but always started again, Chantix made me nautious, this medication seemed much more effective in reducing the urge to smoke. Experienced a little insomnia, but recommend taking well before bedtime.

bupropion: This medication helped me to stop smoking because I didn't have the cravings. It didn't help with the habit part but that just took a little devotion.

Zyban (bupropion): At first had lots of energy and my concentration was great. Got a weird metallic taste in my mouth after I smoked and started to lose the temptation. I slowly started becoming more aggressive and agitated and on about the 5th day. I had hallucinations freaked out and stopped taking it.

Buproban (bupropion): Works well but takes forever to stop the cravings, four weeks for me. I've been taking it for six weeks and glad to say been smoke free now for two weeks. Have not had any side effects though!

Zyban (bupropion): I'm a former smoker of 16 years and have been not smoking because of Zyban for one week so far and haven't looked back. The medicine definitely helps the vicious cravings, however it still takes will power and you have to truly want to quit. Side effects are minimal. Make sure your second dose of the day is not at night time as it will keep you up for most of the night. Other then slight jitters (like a caffeine rush), I'm not experiencing anything major. The caffeine rush feeling has cut down on my coffee intake, so another plus! Coffee is a trigger for me to want to smoke, so more power to Zyban!

bupropion: No moodiness or cravings to smoke, but I am hyper and my house has never been cleaner.

bupropion: I used this drug to quit smoking and it worked great. I did have a little nausea but it was not bad. It took the craving away and made it easy to quit. I only had to take the pills for a month.

bupropion: Helped in combination with Nicotine patch to stop smoking. Stopped finally after 3rd attempt.

Zyban (bupropion): I found Zyban to be very effective and easy to use. I only experienced a few mild side effects (slight constipation, food tasted a bit different). But I'd tried quitting before using gum, microtabs, patches - and none of these worked for me. Thanks to Zyban, it's been over four months since I smoked a cigarette and haven't turned back - proud to be a non-smoker!

Zyban (bupropion): The side effects were strong for me but it was worth it. I quit 5 years ago and have never slipped up.

Zyban (bupropion): Great. Thanks Zyban. I start my Smoke Free Life after 10 days. I can't believe.

Zyban (bupropion): I was given Zyban to stop smoking. After three days I realized I had not smoked or wanted to in two days. It was that fast. I had no side effects that I remember and stopped taking them after two weeks. It's been close to 10 years now and I have absolutely no craving or desire to smoke. At the time I began Zyban I had smoked over a pack a day for about 14 yrs.

Zyban (bupropion): I am 58 and smoked since I was 14. In the last 10 years smoked between 20-25 per day - roll me owns. I have tried Patches - Gum - hypnosis - I was very scared about giving up - then the Doctor gave me Zyban. I did a lot of reading on the Web and there is more scary stuff than good stuff - found this support group with so much positive things to say - I did it - it has been 5 days since my last smoke and it has been mentally wonderful. Still get the physical feeling - but they are getting better. I love this medicine.

Zyban (bupropion): Smoked for 40+ years. Tried all the patches, vitamin B shots, hypnosis all of which did not work. Took Zyban as soon as it was available by prescription and both my wife and myself quite smoking in less than a week. Final smoke was on September 1998.

bupropion: Although it helps take the edge off my stop smoking attempts, I have not been successful in quitting. The odd and good side effect I have experienced is no urge to drink. I was a heavy beer drinker but now find the taste of beer unpleasant. I feel like a beer at times but after having one I find the taste bad and feel like eating. I have quit drinking.

bupropion: Welbutrin seems to help reduce impulsive behavior such as cigarette smoking.

bupropion: I was prescribed Wellbutrin to help me stop smoking, I have now been on 150mg twice a day for about a month. I still smoke and Wellbutrin makes me feel like I have the flu. I am now weaning myself off this medicine so I can try Chantix next. This medicine doesn't make everyone feel good although overall reviews are positive.

bupropion: I have been taking Zyban for a week now. I have quit smoking. It makes the cigarettes taste like you are licking an ashtray. I have also had horrible side effects. When I take my first dose of the day my ears start ringing, I sweat profusely with hot flashes, dry mouth, my hands turn bright red and am dizzy. When I take my second dose I can't sleep when I try to go to bed, and if I do go to bed I have nightmares. I am going to keep taking it though. I am hoping the side effects stop or lessen.

bupropion: I was 24 when I was prescribed Wellbutrin supposedly to stop smoking. All I wanted to do was sleep and when I couldn't just sleep I was very moody, more so than if I would have just quit without the drug.

bupropion: I have been using bupropion for 2 week now. I started with the nicotine patch but didn't want to use it anymore because if I wanted nicotine I would smoke a cigarette. Anyway I started, and since starting it I have quit smoking. I no longer have the urge even if I'm around some one smoking! The only side effect I have with it is it makes me nod off for about an hour to an hour in a half then I wake up and I'm a little groggy but can't sleep even after that for a couple of hours so I take it at night other than that I thank God for it! Smoking was so unattractive to me so I had to quit after smoking for 5 years. Oh I haven't smoked for over a month.
